Virtually, this guy is tough and strong as a bear but don't be deceived for he also posses a great intelligence and rare warm hearted personality which is currently possessed by the writer.. hehehehhe
Above are photos of Api-it volunteering as a dummy for the bandaging training..Mr. Apz, one of our newest members in the group proves to be an interesting guide. He has the talent of keeping people accompanied always. An out going dude with lots of stories to impart.
Apz is a native of Bugang, the vegetable basket of Sagada, so if anyone is interested to visit the lettuce, broccoli, tomato, cucumber and rice farm in the Shangri-la, this guy is the right person for the job. Very helpful as a I describe Apz, he is a genuine gentle hard working tourist guide.
ApZ is seen here assesing the victim during the BLS training at Ambasing conducted by the BFP
Acting as a life guard for his clients at bomod-ok falls

how are you? slaalmat sa SAGADA cap.apz was our main tour guide. he was with us since 4am at the Kiltepan view until 4am the follwing day at their headquarters.
During hte cave connection, I was wearing a bandana, he said i need to take it off as it can be a distraction, then lo and behold! he gave me his cap.. (SAGADA CAP) Since I know that my firends would be ENVIOUS of me if I managed to take it home, I jokingly asked Aps for the cap.
When he took us at the palce where we were staying, I gave him back the cap but he said that he is giving it to me.... APZ, your the best....
He taught us some kankaney words like TAKI! ahahahaha We taught him Ilonggo words as well.
Mam is id TAKI????? wahahahah
so pano? txt2 na lng aps....
Dear Kuya Aps,
Depya here. Still remember me? yung bad girl dun sa caving..haha!
Di mo lang alam kuya Aps, but I really appreciate you for all your help and support during those challenging times. Yung tipong lost kami, dont know what to do, parang walang kakampi (drama haha!) ikaw ang nandyan for us na handang umalalay. I really enjoyed your company. =)
I really recommend kuya Aps na maging guide nyo. Maagap at maalaga sya sa mga guest nya. We feel safe sayo kuya.
Tsaka masarap pa syang magluto. Dami ko nakain sa Bonfire bundat ako..haha!
Iyaman iyaman! Regards to your family.
With lots of love and kisses,
Depya
ampatuan!!!!
i'm sure you remember us... we have a great time even though it was for a few hours... sarap ng pinikpikan ha.... next time we go there... we'll have a drink again. red horse pa nga... buti na lang di ka nagalit sa kasama kong makulit...hehehhehe
hi Api-it. Thanks for being mice last sunday night at the computer shop. Cheers, grace
Hi Apz, thanks for being a great guide to us for 3 days as we hiked, trekked and spelunked in Sagada. It takes a special attitude i.e. extreme patience, bubbling enthusiam and great pride of a place and culture to be a great guide and you possess all of them. If not for you, I doubt if we can reach the bomod-ok falls. Imagine, pasanin mo ba naman ang daughter ko na sobrang taba through the rice terraces when she gets tired of walking. You also braved touring our odd group of 3 kids, 1 physically challenged guy and 1 injured guy. We really enjoyed the tour and the new things that we tried in Sagada like the pot making and the participation in your Igorot ritual which is not normally experienced by other tourist. I hope we'll see you again someday, pag teenagers na sina Diolo and Nikki and you'll be guiding them there with their friends. May God bless you and shower you with more blessings.
Hi Kuya Apz!
Thanks for being such a nice tour guide. Keep up the good work. practice more on your jokes though. hehe =)

Panalo si Kuya Apz, dami alam! :D Libreng culture immersion na, may exhibition pa sa pottery-making.
Next time ulit, Ampacao naman tsaka Marlboro Country! :)
Uy Larry, in fairness naman kay Kuya Apz, naitatawid ang jokes. Haha!
Kitakits kuya! :)
Dear Manong Api-it,
Di masaya ang bonfire kung walang kuya Apz. Super funny ang mga kwento nya about cornick and braces. Galing galing din nya magsayaw ng gangsa. Aside from that, ever ready si manong magpa-take ng picture..ahaha!
Gawis ay agew! Iyaman! Regards to your family!
With lots of love and kisses,
Depya (",)

Dear Api-it,
Happy New Year!
Thank you for patiently guiding our group last Dec. 29, 2012. Gusto ko magkaroon ng copy ng video na may skeleton. Pinatawa mo ako sa tawa mo while watching the video bago mo ako pinagapang sa putikan.
With lots of love and kisses,
Depya
Hi Kuya Aps!
Thanks so much for the patience during the cave connection. Sobrang nag enjoy talaga ako. Gusto ko na bumalik ulit ng Sagada. hahaha! Salamat kuya at nailabas mo akong buhay dun. Kahit na boom waley minsan ang mga hirit mo, natawa parin ako. hahaha!
See you again soon, sana ikaw parin guide ko and hopefully madala ko rin friends ko para the more the merrier. hehe. Merry Christmas! :)
